YAESU FTX-1 Series

The new Yaesu FTX-1 True All-Rounder series offers the new HF/50/144/430 MHz All-Mode Wide-Coverage SDR transceivers FTX-1 Field and FTX-1 Optima.

The FTX-1 provides continuous wide-range receiver coverage from 30 kHz through 174 MHz and from 400 MHz through 470 MHz including SWL, FM broadcast, and Air-band.

FTX-1 Field and FTX-1 Optima share the “Field Head” - a field compact transceiver (W 21,34 x H 8,89 x D 5,59 cm).

FTX-1 Field is supplied with a 6400 mAh large capacity Li-ion Battery (SBR-52LI) for field operation. FTX-1 Optima is supplied with a detachable 100W RF power amplifier (SPA-1) for a Base Station in addition to the SBR-52LI Li-ion battery for field operation.

By attaching the SBR-52LI to the rear of the Field Head, the FTX-1 provides 6W (5W for QRP) stand-alone operation on HF through V/UHF bands in all modes – SSB, CW, AM, FM and C4FM digital. 9-hour stand-alone operating time with 6W on HF bands (SSB), and 8-hour operating time with 6W on V/UHF bands (FM) are available (6-6-48 duty cycle). The SBR-52LI is rechargeable separately with a third-party’s USB Type-C PD cable (45W or greater / 15V 2A).

When using an external 13.8V DC power supply, up to 10W of power output is available, and the Field Head charges the SBR-52LI automatically.

By connecting the SPA-1 to the rear of the Field Head, the FTX-1 operates as a 100W Base Station. No tools are necessary for connection.

A number of fundamental and remarkable features of the new FTX-1 Series are:

• SDR technology
• HF/50/144/430 MHz All-Mode
• 3DSS on a 4.3-inch high-resolution full-color touch display panel
